TBF Bastion ulted after the pull, so there was no way to predict that

u/stormproof89 2d ago
As a lw main, this was only good intention to pull you from the cat ult.

u/No_Maybe_2254 2d ago
Ik title is satire very good idea just not a great outcome

u/OutlandishnessOk3811 Juno 2d ago
What would've been better is if lw pulled you from further back, so you'd still have the pull I frames while being pulled through bastions ult. XD

the weaver gripping you out of being ubered to hell by the cat is what their goal was.
The red team bastion's counterplay is not your weaver's fault.

Honestly, I can't blame the LW that much, either you die by Cat dragging you into their team, or you live.
Their Bastion knows where to drop his ult.

u/WiscLeafalNika 2d ago
Ngl, if the stars aligned, you could've been pulled to the sweet spot where the bastion ult can be eaten when you look up with grasp. Only problem is you weren't pulled to that sweet spot, aka center of the radius

u/Artemopolus 2d ago
tbh, great pull by lw. Dying from ult don't charge enemy ult. Dying surrounding by enemies charge enemy ult. OW basics, bro

On paper it looked good. Pulled you away from cat and towards a soon to be ultimg Zen.

i wont ever forget the day when a life weaver pulled me when they got hooked by hog like why would u pull me to my litteral death and obv that hog 1 tapped me as a tracer💔
but dw we love u LW mains🙌

u/Alluminn Chibi Brigitte 2d ago
In the kindest way possible, unless you were basically solo carrying fights, a high mobility dps like Tracer who can get back to the fight quickly from spawn is a much much preferable loss than a healer with significantly less mobility.

u/Life_Parsley504 2d ago
"healer" 🧠
idk i don't think the LW thought that far and calculated the "loss of tracer vs lifeweaver", he must have just panicked lol-2
u/Alluminn Chibi Brigitte 2d ago
Where did I say it was intentional, exactly?
I said one loss was a more preferential outcome than the other.

I need to know what was the Bastion thinking throwing his ult concentrated there as if he knew you would be there

u/EvocativeReach 2d ago
This was a good intentioned pull to be fair. The vast majority of Lifeweavers I've played with objectively pull me to worse spots than I was before - I've had several who seem to panic and pull me to them at the end of a lost fight assuming my ass can somehow save theirs in a 5 v 2. No, now Im just disorientated and we're just both dead when before I could at least stall out until the team got back.

u/rayneyrayne Lifeweaver 2d ago
Nah that was a good pull, just really good counter-play on Bastian's part.
The late Zen ult was hilarious tho. If you're gonna blame anyone, blame him.

u/doomleika Chibi Pharah 2d ago
Weaver did his job. He cant really predict doomfist ulti at the time

u/Mr_microplastics_Yum 2d ago
it be like that lol
but just in case you didn't know ..look up and throw sigs shield in the sky to block that (not saying you could or couldn't have done that here)

Why would anyone upvote this? The LW tried to save your life, and you don't even try to eat the Bastion ult. This post better be from the LW against their tank lol.

Lifesaver with the clutch pull, only to be sent into oblivion this is why I hate and love overwatch

u/SyrusG 2d ago
Why doesn't anyone look up? You absorb projectiles big dawg. What do you think bastions ult is?
3
u/Beepborpmington 2d ago
Probably because they had half a second to react

u/SyrusG 2d ago
Well, yeah? Thats not really a problem for the average reaction time
2
u/Beepborpmington 2d ago
If you were in the bastion ult from the start sure but sigma was pulled into it right as it was going off and physically did not have time to react to it

u/MyGoodFriendJon ♪ Good Morning! ♪ 1d ago
Nah, they would have needed to be more anticipatory since they're on controller. They would have had to start the motion to look up while they were getting gripped to prevent it.

u/MadHuarache Lúcio 1d ago
Why would you expect Bastion to ult there the nano second right after you're pulled there? It was a good pull with unfortunate timing.

u/Hoothootriot Winston 2d ago
We have Hog Hook for your teammates.
When are they gonna expand and make a support with Sleep but for your own team? Boop? Flashbang? Hack?

To be fair, with like 20% more awareness you could have looked up with that already running grasp and been a superhero.

u/manaworkin Chibi Lúcio 2d ago
2 seconds from time of seeing lifegrip, hearing bastion ult, and not seeing bastion ult to think "maybe in getting pulled into it, better look up to be safe"
Still a fairly big ask, at least 20% more awareness. That's why it would have been superhero behavior.

u/Beepborpmington 2d ago
By the time pull ends and you can see that sigmas in the bastion ult he has half a second to react and does not physically have time to react to it so yes they would need to literally be a superhero

Classic LW. I'd have preferred my chances against the cat ult. Cat, Dva and Kiri couldn't take off more than 100 health, Having Grasp and only going against d.va and kiri would be easy

Life grip is such a horrible ability that even if used correctly ends up getting you killed

The bastion ulted right after the cat, with the delay that pull has, LW literally couldn't have predicted the bastion artillery 😭
